    That's the beauty of a small, privately-run team. There's so much passion and desire to succeed with a fraction of the budget of the big teams. Iain is a top bloke who could have talked for days!

    Iain Hopcroft is a genuinely nice guy and is great at explaining the bike and how it all works! Ran Hospitality for them a few years ago at Brands Hatch so got lots of garage tour and good look round the team as well as drinking with Iain and Wilf in the hotel after!

    Yeah, I was wondering the same thing. Funny that he mentions protecting the line form kinks but nothing about bleeding air out. Every fooking time I have bleed my front brakes it was a nightmare. The fastest I ever did it was 1 hour, and one day I went through 2 six backs of beer over a 4 hour period before I could get the lever to feel good, FFS. It felt like a Twilight Zone episode. I had to drink the beer to avoid me from pouring gas over the whole thing and lighting it on fire. By the time the job was done I was so buzzed i couldn't take it out for a ride. I fell asleep in the garage and took it out the next day.

    I am surprised they can only change the cams, fuel injection, mapping and clutch for engine performance. I thought most of the internals were open for mods in superbike classes. I guess it has to do with the series and year for tech mods allowable.

    The lead weight should be on the bottom of the chassis to provide an antiwheelie couple on the rear axle??? Otherwise, the lead provides a wheelie moment when the bike accelerates??

  • @nabiji
    @nabiji6 жыл бұрын

    I'm a bit confused, front fork bottoms were re-forged in different metals to reduce weight however lead weights were taped to the front of the bike in order to help with front end stability? Wouldn't heavier fork bottoms therefore work better as they work to re-locate the weight of the down lower?

    Donald Trump (Verified) Think about this. Disassemble the front suspension tubes from the upside-down tube on the bike with the front wheel, brakes and fender still attached and lay it all on the floor. All that is 'unsprung weight'. All the bits attached to the bottom forks add weight. The more weight, the slower the suspension operates to keep the rubber on the road when going over bumps. You can say the same for the rear if you seperate the bottom shock link and the whole swingarm from the bike, rear brake and all. That too is unsprung weight. The whole rest of the bike is sprung weight. The lead needed to make the bike legal for weigh-in could be added anywhere on the bike. Putting it at the front just helps a tiny bit in keeping the bike from doing wheelies everytime the rider cranks the throttle.
